Help me understand why one DNC staffer suggesting in an email that someone might ask Sanders about his religious beliefs is such a heinous transgression.
Even if someone had actually done it, which they didn't.
Since when has asking a political candidate about their religious beliefs been forbidden territory?
Conservatives generally don't even bother with the asking part. They prefer to
tell people what a politician's religious beliefs are, especially if it is derogatory. Whether it's true or not. They do it all the time. Where did so many people develop the conviction that Obama is a Moslem, even though he goes to Christian churches and asserts quite persuasively that he is a Christian?
How come merely
asking got to be such a transgression?
Is there more than one standard involved here?
It's okay for everyone else and their brother, on both sides of the aisle, to routinely ask pols about their faith, but when one DNC flack even mentions the possibility in a friggin' email of asking Bernie it's some sort of major ethical violation?
